The Norwalk River is Connecticut’s only river with natural spawning trout; however, the Brook Trout population is in decline due to erosion and invasive plants.  Come hear about how Eagle Scout Benjamin Cohen is collaborating with the Mianus Chapter of Trout Unlimited to repair the Norwalk River’s riparian buffer at Schenck’s Island by removing invasive species, and using native plants to prevent further erosion and decline. Cohen’s project is part of a greater plan to restore habitats at other sites along the Norwalk River, improve water quality, render the river more habitable for trout, and increase community sustainability for all.
